March's theme: RECOVERY & IDENTITY

In the support group today we discussed how to get or stay connected to the part of ourselves that wants to recover, and then how to develop our identity from this place. We shared how authentic identity comes from naming the losses in our lives, having the courage to be with our feelings, and using our voice to state our needs from our loved ones and our Self. It was a rich discussion. We invite everyone to blog about this theme, work with recovery & identity in a creative way throughout the month, or share anything else that is coming up for you.

We also thought an Eating Disorders Anonymous group would be a good addition to the Asheville scene... anyone feeling motivated to start one?

Thanks to everyone that came to the support group today to make it successful, and thanks to everyone who has participated in the blog so far. Happy March!

Next Alumni Support Group: Sunday, April 6th, 4:00pm – 5:30pm
